The reduction of energy consumption in large-scale datacenters is being accomplished through an extensive use of virtualization, which enables the consolidation of multiple workloads
in a smaller number of machines. ...

As long as virtualization has been introduced in data centers, it has been opening new chances for resource management. Nowadays, it is not just used as a tool for consolidating underused nodes and save power; it also ...

Autonomic Computing is a Computer Science and Technologies research area, originated during mid 2000's. It focuses on optimization and improvement of complex distributed computing systems through self-control and ...

Unplanned system outages have a negative impact on company revenues and image. While the last decades have seen a lot of efforts from industry and academia to avoid them, they still happen and their impact is increasing. ...

Nowadays lots of Internet users are clients of web hosting companies, willing to offer their web services, store their content, or just publish their web sites on the network. This has made the hosting companies to use big ...
